Warm, welcoming atmosphere in a charmingly home-y and positive environment. Service was friendly and attentive. And the food was certainly delicious. I wish I lived closer--if I did, I'd be in Cafe d'Marie every day. read more

Love this place, owners service, food, everything! We try to stop in for lunch anytime we're in Davenport! read more

A gem! Excellent ambiance, outstanding service, and great food. From the mushroom soup to the signature Blueberry Feta Vinagairette, to the Cafe Vienna...delicious. Excellent, well balanced flavors. read more

I found an old review draft of mine, and want to finish now. I had Turkey Panini Sandwich here 7 years ago, and it was the best Sandwich ever. I ordered another piece of sandwich as it was so good. I wonder if the quality is the same now, but will definitely go back there if I ever go to Iowa again. read more

Every once in a while, you find a truly special place that feels like home, has amazing food, and that you know you will never forget. We did not want to leave this delightful spot. The asparagus soup was world class. Food was fresh and full of flavor. And get dessert! Warm bread pudding or chocolate cake. Both were perfect!! I'm tea lover, and they had a whole menu of fresh brewed teas. Hot or iced! Black teas, green teas, white teas, even the delicate pu-erhs. Must stop in Iowa!! The owners are the most lovely people you will meet! read more

The service, the food and the atmosphere was all great! I have been going to d'Marie's for years. I have taken many people so they could enjoy it also. My favorite is the mushroom soup! Deeeeelish! read more

Food was okay. Service not so much. Ambiance is quaint. The staff honestly acts like they don't care if you are there or not. Was ignored forever in the entryway and they weren't really that busy. Mentioned up front we would be wanting dessert and nobody ever came back to wait on us and didn't really see any staff to flag down. Won't be returning no matter how Christian chic they try to be. read more

Cute French style ambience. Coffee and sandwiches were great Service excellent I recommend it! read more

We were in the Quad Cities for a dance competition on Saturday, and decided to play tourists on Sunday. That's when we stumbled across Café D'Marie--and I'm so glad we did. The staff here are warm and welcoming, the kind of people who make you feel like a regular on your first visit. The food was absolutely outstanding--thoughtful, fresh, and full of flavor. Every bite reminded me why hidden gems like this are worth seeking out. If I lived in the Quad Cities, this would be one of my go-to spots without question. Café D'Marie is the kind of place that makes you wish you had more Sundays to spend here. Highly recommend. read more

I almost hate to add to the flood of good reviews, because this spot gets busy enough already. But it's excellent and deserves all of its success. You can't go wrong with their soup, sandwiches, deserts and coffee. Their quiche is alleged to be wonderful too, but I can't stop ordering the lunch combo (soup/sandwich or salad pick 2 combo). Perfect lunch sizes, great combinations, fresh and delicious. The kind and friendly service is casual and unpolished, but no complaints from me. They're open fairly limited hours and seem to be very busy whenever they're open. This lovely place is a local gem and I'm always glad get a chance to get there read more

So, I'm from out of town some 3 + hrs drive away. I had some in town local business, and I had wanted to try a top rated lunch place. It's a breakfast, lunchtime spot with an abundance of character. It's located in a later 1800's Davenport IA. historical converted home. Next to the railroad tracks in the city. I placed a take away phone order, in which they didn't pester me for any payment. Wow, total trust. So, I ordered two Muffuletta (with the ham, salami) sandwiches which come with potato chips. You can specify the spiciness level. They were quite flavorful. I also ordered the Lemon Zest cake and the Chocolate Espresso slices. Both were moist and tasty. I wasn't crazy about their flimsy takeaway containers and they packaged everything in one paper bag. When I had asked, they separated some items like the cake slices. Overall, a very nice welcoming experience and a nice chat with the harder working woman owner. I would definitely return when in Davenport. read more

I'm visiting Davenport from California and my daughter brought me here the day after Christmas for brunch. It was amazing! The ambience is extremely homey and close knit. The food was delicious and service was outstanding. It truly feels like you're dining with friends. They owners greet and take your order. They treated my granddaughter like an absolute princess. You've got to try the bread pudding, it just melts in your mouth. Absolutely will be coming back because there's just no other place that compares to Cafe D'Marie. Not even in California. read more

Happy to see the owner's friends come and support this business, but overall feel of the place was strange. It took an hour from the time we walked in to the time we sat down and had our order taken. You can hear the employees chatting/yelling and watch them prep food (ingredients from plastic containers moved to plastic bags), gloves (worn to prevent contamination) staying on while touching the fridge or other surface. Very overpriced for plainly and lazily served food. We were very excited to enjoy this experience since most reviews online are great. Sad to say it was a great disappointment. read more

The food is always delicious! Can't beat homemade fresh. Love the blueberry vinaigrette. Lovely people in this special place that makes it feel like home. read more

Every visit is a great and quite enjoyable. Recommend highly. Today's panini #12 was excellent. Curry cauliflower soup is worth the drive. :) read more

Haven't been in a long time but thought it would be somewhere different than our normal rotation. Happy to be back here. This is one of those places that offers fresh, simple food that's well-executed. Nothing fancy but extremely homey and comfortable. Makes me feel like I'm a kid at a family members house being served lunch -- in a good way! It gives you that cared for, sleepy Sunday afternoon feel. Yes, it's in a home and a little packed with tables and decor (Christmas stuff year round but who cares). It's quaint and adorable and lovely. It's clean despite being lived in so I'm here for it. Their coffee and baked goods are where it's at. But the paninis are really yummy and the soup was great! Note that strollers are a little complicated inside. I would recommend leaving it outside or sitting on the beautiful patio weather permitting. Don't come here if you're in a hurry - which by the way is very European in and of itself. So sit down, relax, have a nice conversation or bring a book (or order to go). This place clearly has a good following but is approachable for anyone who is going for the first time. You'll likely be amazed at how lively it is in such a small space when from the road it looks like nothing more than an 1800s brick river house - another part of the whimsy and fun of this place. We will be back again soon! read more

Found Cafe d'Marie online. Good thing we did because if you're not local you'd be hard pressed to discover the goodness inside of this place. Driving by there's an open light in the window and a small banner on the deck. That's all that tells you this is a public establishment and not a private home. Cafe d'Marie is a family affair and great care is shown toward wanting the customer to enjoy their experience. The owner was very welcoming and pleasant to chat with while we waited for our drinks and cookie. The homemade bakery items are the bomb and while we didn't have one the panini sandwiches sounded equally intriguing. There's indoor seating and a nice backyard area as well. A fun little stop we stumbled across only a few blocks from the downtown market area. read more

Great vibe with fresh food and homemade recipes. Super friendly but busy and hard to park.

Delicious options, unique sweet and savory combinations. Large tea and coffee selection and don't forget to take home a dessert, these are all made IN HOUSE unlike most restaurants. Lovely spot in a historic home run by the owners who have always been very friendly! read more

Though I was raised in Davenport, Iowa, my visits home are whirlwinds. It is dependent upon my mom to show some of the best places to eat. She claims that I have high standards since I live close to NYC. Cafe d'Marie is now my new favorite place to eat whenever I am in the Quad-Cities. We were joyfully greeted by the staff when we entered. (There are two entrances - one that is directly in front of the cafe, a second which is on the side. The former is cool because it gives you the feel that you're visiting the home of an old friend: short stairs, foyer, etc. The latter is great because you get a chance to walk through the study before entering the dining room. Both gives you a chance to view the sun room that provides a view of downtown and The Centinniel Bridge.) My mom enjoyed her hibiscus tea - balanced, full of flavor, but add your own sugar. I had an espresso. I think it was slightly more than a double, but still it was quite good. Both came out relatively quickly. My parents had The No. 1 - turkey, cranberry, provolone, spinach on artisan bread. They both thought it was quite good. I ordered The No. 11 - Cafe d'Marie's take on the muffletta. I chose to have the "mild" olive tapanade. That was a great choice because even the mild had a bit of a pleasurable kick to it. It wasn't overwhelming but definitely added to the sandwich's flavor. The bread was also artisan which made it more of a panini. No arguments by me. It was quite good - so much so that I've been telling everyone about it this afternoon. The portions were perfect. You will not leave stuffed but you know that you had a hearty lunch. For dessert, my parents had the traditional bread pudding. The cafe offered three options cinnamon, pecan, and cherry. My parents chose the "original" (cinnamon) with a smile on their face. The cinnamon roll was fresh and warm with an overflow of icing - just the way it should be. Cafe d'Marie is an ideal spot for a mid-afternoon lunch with plenty of seating both inside and under a huge shade tree outside. If you're living in the Quad-Cities, this is a great change of pace from many of the local offerings. If you're visiting, then make this your first stop. My only complaint is that Cafe d'Marie does not have an Instagram. It's 2023! I want to be able to continue to follow their progress before my next visit home. read more

What a wonderful little cafe. Fantastic atmosphere. Eclectic decor. The most spectacular cup of tea (Earl Grey Supreme) I've had this side of the pond! The food was delicious. But the real star was the owner. Exceedingly kind, infinitely knowledgeable, and utterly beautiful. Thoroughly enjoyed our conversation regarding our mutual faith. Hope to try the soup next time I'm in town. read more

It's a pretty good restaurant and I see why so many people like it but I won't lie the food was a bit too simple for my liking, especially considering the price, I don't feel like it's worth it paying about $15 for a sandwich, bagged chips, and a bottle of water, but it was good tasting at least! But we also waited for a long time to be seated and be given our food which was a bit of a bummer but understandable since I don't think they have a lot of staff. The ambience was very nice and mellow though, great for having a conversation with someone but it is quite cramped when there's a rush..! read more

Always a staple to visit when we are in the quad cities! The coffee, smoothies, paninis and soups are absolutely delicious. You can tell everything is made with love.

Absolutely amazing! First of all the ambiance is fabulous. It just feels good to be in the space. It's cozy, but not cramped. All the staff we encountered were kind, attentive and knowledgeable. I had the blueberry, honey, goat cheese and spinach quiche. It was soooooo good! Unlike any quiche I've ever had. I also had a side salad. The dressing was phenomenal. I took a chocolate chip cookie to go, which I'm nibbling on as I write this review. Talk about satisfying my sweet tooth! If you are reading this review, trying to decide if you are going to give this outstanding cafe a try, I really hope you make the decision to check this place out. You won't regret it!! read more

I was, for a long time, a staunchly traditional breakfast food girl, but I have since been converted. Two ripe years ago, I came to cafe d'marie as a last-minute alternative to avoid the long wait at QC pancake house. Initially, I was somewhat disappointed and off-put by the lack of traditional egg-and-potato breakfast dishes offered. After one meal, I knew that this would become my go-to. The sandwiches are immaculate and crafted with the finest tomato/basil/pesto breads around. The quiches have a respectably tender and flaky crust. The teas--all served hot or iced--are refreshing year-round. The soups (in particular the cream of asparagus) are quite honestly heaven in a cup, if you believe in such a thing. I have yet to save room for dessert, but in my humble opinion, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. read more

Cafe d'Marie - Panini - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Davenport, Iowa

-Ambiance: great, little house feels -Food: great, food and drinks came out great temp -Service: Sub-par. We were put in the room next to the main area so the server's traffic never really crossed our table other than drink order and food order. We eat our food, and sit and wait in front of our empty plates for about 15 minutes wondering when the check will come, by the way no check ins to make sure everything came out okay. Had to speak up wondering how we pay to get out of here, to be instructed to pay at the front. Fine, but would have been great with a heads up that's what I needed to do. I stand behind other guests talking to the owner into a deep conversation. I wait about 5 minutes without any signal that she was trying to get to me. I had to speak up to get her attention, *and she felt inconvenienced that I interrupted so I can leave*. Clicks a few buttons, and says "it's waiting on you, it's not hard" is what she says...like what kind of response is that?? I don't do zero tips often, but that response certainly warranted one. I won't be coming back. Plenty of other good spots around the QC. read more

Food - you can't go wrong with any choice on the menu. I always get a salad and sandwich. The blueberry dressing is to die for! It's in a beautiful old home which is really nice to dine in or outside in their beautiful garden. Service is usually pretty quick even if they're busy (they often are) read more
